Would a rose by any other name smell as sweet? Let’s find out!

“What’s that Smell?” is a game night that puts your nose to the test. In the first hour, you will be presented with 10 aromatic materials, all anonymous, to sniff, reflect, and possibly identify. Each participant will record their impressions and guesses. The second hour will consist of a collective sharing of olfactory impressions and the unveiling of the aromatic materials’ identities and characters. It will be a rollicking ride of encountering strange molecules, meeting fellow smell-hounds, and developing your skills of olfactory recall.

 

Topics covered:

+ An introduction to nose training for scent enthusiasts and budding perfumers

+ Encounter unknown aromatic materials in a fun communal setting

+ Add to your olfactory recall and knowledge

Take-Aways:

+ Foundational education in olfactory recall and material evaluation

+ A new enthusiasm for the building blocks of perfumery

+ One of the most fun experiences of your life

Materials: Materials are included in the sign-up cost, and provided by the IAO during class.
